Annual Hose and Ladder Testing
Email Print RSS Facebook Twitter RSS

By Fire Chief Frank Dowlin
October 25, 2019

On October 25, 2019 Chief Engineer Cooper moved apparatus back and forth to the Arc building on Modena Road. The sole purpose of this move was to have all of the company's hose and ladders annual test completed by the Waterway Hose and Ladder testing company.

Waterway, the country's largest fire-hose testing Company. Waterway performs all aspects of the fire hose testing process to ensure safe use. Services include checking and replacing all gaskets, inspection of couplings and hose cleaning. Waterway is the only ISO-9001 accredited hose testing company in the USA. Their equipment, test procedures, and record documentation has been reviewed and certified by a 3rd party, so you know you are getting a proper, professional job. Over the last 20 years we have tested over 70,000,000' of hose. Conscientious, trained employees complete your annual hose test requirement to NFPA standards without any potential damage to your apparatus or injury to firefighters.

Engine 37-1, Engine 37-2, and Engine 37-3 all were taken over and had all hose and ladders removed and tested. All spare hose was loaded into a truck and taken over for testing. All hose was rerolled and or packed back on the apparatus by Waterway employees.

All in all the testing went well, after testing just shy or 10,000 feet of hose, only 100 ft and a 25 ft of 5 inch supply line, a 100 ft of 1 ¾, and a 100 ft of 1 inch forestry hose failed testing and was immediately placed out of service, all ladders tested good.
